2003 Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande
Description
Tasted at Bordeaux Index's "10-Year On" tasting in London. The Pichon Lalande 2003 is a notorious wine that has so often displays off-putting vegetal notes. This is a much better bottle. It has a smudged bouquet of red berries, cassis, blackcurrant pastilles and a touch of violet. The merlot is very dominant here, rendering it almost like a Saint Emilion wine. The palate is medium-bodied with a fleshy texture, well-judged acidity and natural composure. It is a forward Pichon Lalande, but it is very refined and harmonious with a sensual caressing finish.

On the nose, it reveals a reticent fruit profile with rose-petal perfume, milky notes, and clean, cedary aromas. The palate is fresh with raspberry fruit harmoniously combined with vanilla oak, cinnamon spice, and a soft milky note. The alcohol is well-balanced, the acidity is fresh, and the fruit lingers on a long, elegant finish. This wine is lush, opulent, and sensuous, with a core of earthy, spicy, blackberry, black currant, and tobacco-tinged fruits. It is full-bodied and rich, making it a solid vintage for Pichon Lalande.
